Question

the background of my server is a single server farm which is consist of Windows 2008 Standard SP1 MOSS 2007 SP1 Enterprise SQL 2008 SP1 Standard all in 64 bit environment

what i did is that i upgraded SQL Server 2008 SP1 -> OK and then WSS 3.0 SP2 --> OK (wssv3sp2-kb953338-x64-fullfile-en-us.exe) but MOSS 2007 SP2 --> FAILED (officeserver2007sp2-kb953334-x64-fullfile-en-us.exe)

here is the following command that i tried but failed. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------C:\ProgramFiles\CommonFiles\MicrosoftShared\WebServerExtensions\12\BIN>STSADM.EXE -o upgrade -inplace -forceupgrade -url http://mossdev01The specified SPContentDatabaseName=SharePoint_AdminContent_f632e5bf-cbd9-4d9f-a819-1811feb4f2b6Parent=SPDatabaseServiceInstanceName=MOSSDB has been upgraded to a newer version of SharePoint.Please upgrade thisSharePoint application server before attempting to access thisobject. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------C:\ProgramFiles\CommonFiles\MicrosoftShared\WebServerExtensions\12\BIN>PSCONFIG.EXE -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -wait -forceSharePointProductsandTechnologiesConfigurationWizard version 12.0.6413.1000Copyright(C)MicrosoftCorporation2005.All rights reserved.

1.Install the Bits on the servers by running the downloads wssv3sp2-kb953338-x64-fullfile-en-us.exe & officeserver2007sp2-kb953334-x64-fullfile-en-us.exe

2.Update the db schemas PSCONFIG.EXE -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -wait or SharePoint Products and Technologies Configuration WizardOnly run theSharePoint Products and Technologies Configuration Wizard or PSCONFIG.EXE -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -wait command after the Bits have been deployed to every SharePoint Server in the environment

It appears from the information you provided the (officeserver2007sp2-kb953334-x64-fullfile-en-us.exe) failed. Also, you proceeded to run the STSADM.EXE -o upgrade -inplace -forceupgrade -url http://mossdev01 and when you ran the PSConfig Command it failed. In addition, you have now restored the file system to SP1 without restoring the Dbs to the same state.

There are three Options

Option 1

1.Restore the Dbs to a state prior to beginning the update tonighta.Note: This will leave you at your previous state with the file system and Dbs in sync

Option 2

1.Restore the Dbs to a state prior to beginning the update tonight
